Make micro adjustments with a disc sander

  I've never seen this work as well as they claim it does. If you don't do the same thing to all the pieces, the edges won't line up right.

  I tried this, even though you told me it wouldn't work very well. You were right; it didn't work very well. I rounded the miter a bit and made it worse.

Use hot water to soften any paper or glue left on the wood, then scrape it away and sand as usual. 
- Student One on 08 Mar 14
  
  I used too much water, and it weakened the joint. One spot actually came apart. I would recommend using hand tools to get rid of excess stuff.

  I was afraid of that. We have to remember that the normal wood glue we use is water soluble. That's why for cutting boards or outside projects we have to use a different type of glue.

Quarter Sawn vs. Plain Sawn vs. Rift Sawn Lumber | Northend Hardwoods - 0 views

shared by Bryan Koppert on 15 Mar 14 - No Cached

In a quarter sawn board, the growth rings of the tree are closer to perpendicular to the surface of the board than in most plain sawn boards. In certain species of wood, most notably Oak,  this creates a beautiful visual effect.
- Bryan Koppert on 15 Mar 14
  
  This is that amazing fleck pattern from the medullary rays that so many of you comment on when you are lucky enough to find a flat sawn board with some of this in it.

  For those who are still getting started and those who have been doing this a long time, an online subscription is pretty worth while. I would still investigate the topic further outside of FWW, but they usually are right on with their information.

I've been thinking of building something similar to this. I think if it were made right, it could also be used as a taper jig, along with other things. Adding a few more holes could make this type of sled very versatile.

Good information. Remind me sometime, and I'll show you The Hand Plane Book. Take a look at most of our planes; you'll see I've done most of these suggestions to ours. I haven't tuned any of the frogs, but ours seem to plane well as they are. I have cleaned our frogs and adjusted them. Given more time, I'd like to completely over-haul one plane, complete with a mirror polish on the sole. Way over the top, but it would have to look sweet!
